Weekly OS Update

A virtual or a dedicated hosting machine is a standalone machine, that has its own Operating System and keeping the latter up-to-date is an important, albeit underrated task. Not simply can an update improve the performance of your websites, but it will also save you lots of troubles in the future. An update can be released for a number of reasons, the most common being to fix newly found security holes, which may permit third-party people to access and change the content that you have on the server. You might also see an improved functionality of your web applications since updates can also be released for better compatibility between the Operating System and the configuration it functions on so as to get the most out of the hardware. Moreover, if you keep your programs up-to-date, they might need a later OS version which will have the needed software dependencies and will permit them to operate adequately.

We provide weekly Os updates as a part of our Managed Services pack, so if you have a virtual private servers from our company and you add this upgrade to your plan, our system administrators will make sure that you have the most recent version of the OS installed on your hosting machine at all times. They shall also double-check any web or offline software functioning on the VPS after the update in order to make certain that all things are functional. The update service can be used for any of the three Os's which you can pick for your hosting server - Ubuntu, Debian and CentOS. That way you can enjoy a reliable and secure software environment in the event that you aren't quite tech-savvy or in case you do not have much time to take care of the hosting machine.

If you get one of our Linux dedicated servers hosting packages and you would like to have an up-to-date Operating System, but you have not managed your own hosting machine before and you aren't certain how to do that or you just do not have much time to deal with the hosting machine, you'll be able to take advantage of the OS update service which is integrated in our Managed Services bundle. Our administrators can install the latest patches for the Operating system that you have chosen for the hosting machine - CentOS, Debian or Ubuntu, and they will make certain that all of your apps are operating correctly after that. The updates are done every week, so you'll constantly have the latest Operating System version and you will not have to stress about any OS-related security problems.
